Thanks, guys, for your input last week regarding my BPI.  You may remember that I wondered if I had a UTI, well I found out today that I dont... I have a uro appt on 2/28, I went in today to see a P.A., who did a urine sample. Didn't do much else, gave me a new med to try since I told him my urgency is worse (Myrbetriq), since Toviaz makes it harder for me to pee. (That's an understatement).  He said try it over the next week, but also said it can raise my blood pressure, and that I should check my blood pressure daily.  I didn't take the first dose yet because I wanted to get your input on this med. I'm also wondering what I'll hear next week from the uro, I had a cysto last summer, the P.A. said he doesn't think the doc will want to do another one this soon.  I also had my psa draw today.  Thanks

    I don't remember what your symptoms are, but Myrbetriq is usually side effect free. If you have urgency it might help - could take a couple of weeks before you see any results
